Listed as Sydney, Australia but Sent from China and return address in China?

[nerds4hire]

I usually try buy from Australian located sellers on eBay.

It annoys me that I keep purchasing goods from example Sydney, but when received they have arrived from China and if there are any issues (in the case I am having now) - the return address is in China.

How is this allowed?

There shiould be a rule that if the listing says Australia - That means, it's in stock and gets sent from Australia with an address located in Australia.

If the description includes the quantifier  "pces", "pieces" or "piecee", and if the actual item noun is preceded by classifiers (which seem to be misleading), it's because Chinese languages use quantifiers and classifiers as well as pitch, to validate the limited number of words.

Multiple selllers, same stock images, many thousands of different items in stock.

Prices are obviously conversions into AUD.

Rarely in straight dollars, or  to the nearest 99 cents, or 95 cents. 

My favourite eBay triad gang are called Tongtool.
